This morning in bed, my head, heart and body were not on the same page.
My body was telling me to stay in bed longer for a wide variety of reasons. I just had a tattoo done the night before that was raw and painful. I was running on extra late nights and early mornings this week and clearly needed more zzzz’s. Oh and my all time favorite, my head telling me it was OK to not always have to push yourself every morning to work out, that there are legit scientific reasons for “rest” days.
I peeked through the blind cracks and noticed some blue sky shaping up. Hopping on my mountain bike would mean fresh crisp air to clear my head and inject me with super energy for the rest of my day.
My heart was pushing me around to remind me how much I love seeing mountain range beauty. A nature infusion is a must have for my spirit.
Yup, I felt a full-fledged head game battle coming on between my body, head and heart.
I am not into head games of any kind, which ultimately motivated my legs to swing over on the side of my bed and get my arse into action. But, it was a close one.
For those of you that know me, I have developed a life habit to work out every morning before I start my day. The rewards are plenty with good energy, clear thinking, a strong body and a happy spirit.
With all these rewards, it seems like a no-brainer, right? Uh huh.
Morning head games are real even after figuring out all the solid life habit tricks. They like to show up and try to catch you off guard—knocking you off your game. Good thing my head and heart are up for the challenge. We got this.
Do you have the ‘Morning Head Game’ battle going on too?
Or am I on my own with my head, heart and body trying to knock me off my game?
